Why not just use the Linnworks API?
You can, and we build on it. But a raw API is built for developers, not for AI. Rishvi’s MCP layer adds what an AI needs to answer business questions reliably:
- Business-level tools: “dead stock” or “blocked orders” is one call, not five endpoints and a join.
- Built-in resolution: SKUs and warehouse names are resolved to Linnworks IDs automatically.
- Analysis included: consumption, stock cover and stock health are calculated for the model.
- Guardrails: write operations are separated and kept away from conversational AI.
